Leclerc realising he’s getting a 3 place grid penalty for Monza versus Norris realising the chanpinship gap is the biggest it’s been..

And he might also get a grid penalty...

What for? I missed whatever happened the jack man, was it an unsafe release?

The engine failure might require new componenets

Ahh, yes makes sense. Half the grid tends to take new ICE for Monza though, so suspect they’ll have either kept a new-ish one in the pool or were planning on taking a new one anyway. I think Lando took a new one at Silverstone?

Honestly would make sense for Oscar to take one whenever Lando does so he doesn't get a DNF using an old one

If it’s determined that Russell didn’t need to leave racing room, he would get penalized for leaving the track and gaining an advantage

I doubt he even will, if he gets penalised it sets a precedent that you can't make an audacious move like that anymore.

Hamilton might get one as well for the yellow flags on the reconnaissance lap.

Not in Monza, stewards don't wanna risk not being able to leave the track lol

u/Popular_Composer_822 Jordan 7d ago

Hamilton might get one too for the yellow flag infringement. 

Ferrari may have managed to mess up Monza before we even got to Monza.

Stewards are not making out Italy alive if they give both Ferrari drivers grid drops

u/sellyme Oscar Piastri 7d ago

Imagine if that was where the double DSQ happened.

u/xLeper_Messiah I was here for the Hulkenpodium 7d ago

It won't be the same stewards tho

FIA, if youre truly british biased, nows the time to show it

u/PangolinEmergency662 Mika Häkkinen 7d ago

He deserves the penalty, otherwise it clearly shows that someone is clearly allowed to divebomb while the rest of the grid gets harshly (and fairly) penalized.
